- 1908 Ford Model T Chassis - The Ford Model T's chassis was built to take punishment from the poor roads in America circa 1910. It was light and flexible, designed to bend rather than break with each bump and jolt. Customers had the option of purchasing just the chassis and powertrain. They could either source a body from a separate coachbuilder or make their own.

- Pre-Prototype Chassis Construction, Studebaker-Packard Corporation 57th Series Product Program, 1951-1956 - Studebaker and Packard merged in 1954, hoping to solve financial problems at both companies. The new corporation marketed its cars as two distinct brands until 1958, though by 1957 Packard cars were essentially rebadged Studebakers. This photo shows work on the 57th series -- continuing Packard's tradition of series designations rather than model years.
